ELIJAH PETERSON, retired farmer, P. 0. London, was born in Clark County, Ohio, January 30, 1825. He is the son of Michael and Susan Peterson, natives of Hardy County, Va., of German descent. He received his education in Clark and Madison Counties, and adopted the occupation of a farmer, which he has since followed. He was married, in 1848, to Mary Wilbur, by whom he had three children, viz.: Barger, married and living on the home farm; Clanton' a teacher, also married; and Cadmus, a farmer, married and at present living in London. Mrs. Peterson died in 1881. Mr. Peterson is a Republican in politics, and for eighteen years served as an officer of Paint Township. He owns a farm of 240 acres, well improved and most of it highly cultivated. Mr. Peterson has retired from the active duties of life, and is now taking the rest that his years merit, while the work of his farm is being performed by younger and stronger hands.

Will Regulating Home Care Workers Cost Jobs?
By editor
President Obama wants to regulate wages for nearly 2 million home care workers. Supporters of the regulation say home care workers are underpaid, but others say the changes could force health care agencies to cut jobs. Host Michel Martin hears from a home care agency director, a client, and a labor reporter.

The Natural Law Theory of St. Thomas AquinasSusan DimockYork University January 1, 1999 The Philosophy of Law, 6th Edition, Feinberg, Joel, and Jules Coleman, eds. Wadsworth, 2000 Abstract: In this essay I present the core of St. Thomas Aquinas's theory of law. The aim is to introduce students both to the details of Aquinas's particular theory of law, as well as to the features of his view that define what has come to be known as "the natural law" conception of law more generally. Though the essay is for the most part non-critical, some of the more important implications of the natural law position are raised for further thought and to pave the way for the study of alternative views which have been developed in the subsequent history of the philosophy of law. One brief note about the structure of the essay will complete my introductory remarks: The essay tries to present as much of Aquinas's theory in his own words as possible. Material taken directly from Aquinas appears in bold type throughout, with the origin of the quotation given in parentheses following the text. Unless otherwise noted, the material is taken from Aquinas's Summa Theologica; the translation from Latin is that of the Fathers of the English Dominican Province.

Topic tags/keywords: question I have a question concerning double sided tape. I've been using it quite a bit for various projects and it does its job perfectly. The brand I'm using is Shurtape.from Lowe's. Problem I'm having is peeling the cover off. I usually end up using a knife and a few choice words before getting it done. Always with a lot of aggravation.. Is it just me and my old eyes or does everyone have this trouble? I watch guys in woodworking videos just peel it as if by magic, seemingly with no effort whatsoever. I know not a big problem but just one of my pet peeves. I really enjoy LumberJocks and check it out each day. Kyfarmer -- Kyfarmer |

I always have trouble peeling the cover off. I use a standard tape from the local stationary shop which has worked well for me. Plenty of grip when holding two pieces of wood together. I think the peeling thing is just something inherent with the material. -- RusticJohn |

I always believed that Norm did all the work on both versions of every project he made. But I have NEVER believed that a guy can put down double-stick tape and then just pull the cover of without any trouble whatsoever!!! I don't know how they start it, but it's always been a bear! Don't get me wrong. I love the stuff, but it does have some inherent problems. |

Press the tape down firmly then slide a knife blade in almost horizontally under the backer, starting about 1/2 inch from an edge. Works wonders. |
#7 posted 07-31-2014 02:40 AM |
I usually leave about a 1/2" of the cover strip on the tape from the last use. I then apply the tape, grab the cover strip, peel it back to the edge. apply pressure and tear it off. Now I have a piece of cover strip as long as the piece I applied the tape to. If I need to apply additional strips of tape, I repeat until it's covered. Then I tear the cover strip leaving it about a 1/2" long, and store the tape until needed again. I don't have to fuss with trying to find an edge to peel up. .........

At yesterday's Cabinet session, the Government of Montenegro adopted the Pre-accession Economic Programme (PEP) for 2012-2015, drafted by the Ministry of Finance. The 2012-2015 Pre-Accession Economic Programme outlines the policies and structural reforms that need to be implemented over a three-year period. It will serve as a basis for creating a consistent economic policy aimed at boosting Montenegro's economic competitiveness, mitigating the negative effects of the new wave of the economic crisis, and establishing a stable basis for a sustainable growth in the long term.
The PEP provides two macroeconomic and fiscal scenarios: baseline and lower growth scenario. Real GDP growth in the medium term is forecast at 2.5% in 2013, 3.0% in 2014 and 3.5% in 2015. The lower growth scenario is based on the assumption of growing negative trends in the eurozone: the recession, reduced loan activity, and higher unemployment. This scenario forecasts the following GDP growth in real terms: 1.0% in 2013, 1.5% in 2014, and 2% in 2015.

Imps pair turn down new contracts
Imps chairman Steff Wright admitted it "was unlikely" the club will be able to reach agreement with the duo.
"Adrian has rejected his contract and the deadline that was set to reach an agreement [Tuesday] has since come and gone," Wright told the Lincolnshire Echo. "The consequence of that is we now have the power to withdraw the offer altogether.
"The ball is back in our court now with respect to his future and Peter must decide whether he is willing to sit down at the negotiating table again.
"I know the question that is bound to be asked is 'will he be here next season?' I would say at this stage that looks unlikely because the player may have his eye on moving somewhere else."
On Mullarkey, Wright added: "Sam has reject his contract and, similar to Adrian, it will be down to Peter to decide whether he wants to sit down and negotiate with him again."

Labour must make a principled defence of trade union funding [1]
Confronted by the Tories' cynical manoeuvres, Labour should defend union funding as the most open and democratic source of money in politics.
Confronted by the Tories' cynical manoeuvres, Labour should defend union funding as the most open and democratic source of money in politics.
by George Eaton [2] Published
Even by the Tories' Machiavellian standards, the decision to use the new lobbying bill to crack down on trade union funding of Labour is a remarkably cynical manoeuvre. Under the move, reportedly [3] the brainchild of George Osborne, measures will be introduced to include union funding of leaflets in election spending limits and to end self-certification of union membership. At present, only the marginal cost of the printing counts towards a party's spending cap but under the Tories' proposals, the full costs, including staffing and premises, will have to be declared. The new law will apply to those organisations "directly affiliated to political parties and those contributing £100,000 a year or more to political parties" (the unions, in other words), while excluding the Conservatives' large business donors.
What this has to do with the latest lobbying scandal, which saw Patrick Mercer resign the Tory whip after allegedly receiving cash for questions from a fake firm, is a question you might well ask. As Conservative MP Douglas Carswell tweeted [4], "Can anyone tell me if it was concerns about trade union activity that prompted demands to deal with lobbying? Did I miss something?" But the Tories, who have been outraised by Labour in recent quarters, are determined not to let a good crisis to waste. Having lost the boundary changes, Osborne, who remains the Tories' chief electoral strategist, has seized a new opportunity to tilt the odds in his party's favour.
Labour has responded by rightly describing the move as "a shabby and panicked response by Cameron to divert attention from a set of damaging headlines hitting the Conservative Party", while also emphasising that party funding reform (which all parties accept the need for) should be pursued on a cross-party basis.
But if it is to counter the Tories' dark arts, it must also launch a principled defence of union funding as one of the most open and honest sources of money in politics. Many frequently attempt to draw an equivalence between the unions and the City tycoons and private equity barons who fund the Conservatives [5], but there is no comparison to be had between the big money donors seeking to buy influence over the Tories and funding from the unions, composed of hundreds of thousands of individual members who have democratically agreed to contribute through the political levy.
Some Tories, most notably Robert Halfon, the MP for Harlow, have rightly urged their party to abandon its kneejerk hostility to the unions. As he wrote in a blog [6] for The Staggers last year, unions are "essential components of the Big Society. They are the largest voluntary groups in the UK. They are rooted in local communities, and are very much social entrepreneurs. TUC research shows that trade union officers are eight times more likely to engage in voluntary work than the average."
With union membership now on the rise for the first time since 2003, Labour's association with them should be seen as a virtue, not a vice. But unless the party is able to state as much with conviction, the Tories will continue to blacken their name.

Fans remember King of Pop with thousands of red rosesAFP June 27, 2012, 12:16 am TWN LOS ANGELES--Michael Jackson fans left thousands of roses at his tomb on Monday, marking the third anniversary of the King of Pop's accidental death.
Jackson died at age 50 on June 25, 2009 from an overdose of propofol, a powerful anesthetic he obtained with the help of his doctor and used as a sleeping aid. Jackson was buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Glendale, a northern suburb of Los Angeles. The Great Mausoleum — a replica of the Campo Santo in Genoa, Italy — where Jackson was laid to rest beside several other stars, is strictly forbidden to the public. But fans have developed a habit of laying flowers and small notes in front of the stained glass window of a wall, close to his tomb. Jackson's fans banded together to collect US$30,000 and deliver 10,000 red roses — the singer's favorite flower — to his tomb, according to celebrity news site TMZ.com. The roses were laid among sunflowers — left on a weekly basis by one loyal fan, as well teddy bears and other offerings. Michael Jackson's daughter Paris, now 14, wrote a Tweet Monday: "RIP Michael Jackson. Dad you will forever be in my heart. I love you." Randy Jackson, one of the star's brothers, Tweeted: "RIP Michael Jackson King Of Pop!!!" Justin Bieber also offered his condolences on Twitter. "You will never be forgotten," Bieber wrote. "Michael Jackson is the epitome of a legend — a true icon that can only, at best, be emulated," Tweeted singer and TV show host Paula Abdul. Jackson's last doctor, Conrad Murray, was sentenced to four years in prison at a Los Angeles court in November for involuntary manslaughter in the singer's death. The lawyer in charge of Murray's appeal, Valerie Wass, confirmed Monday that her client regrets not having testified during his trial. "He absolutely wishes he testified," Wass told The Los Angeles Times. During the trial, witnesses painted an unflattering picture of Murray as incompetent, careless and greedy. |

Optimizing the Impact of Mid-level Leaders.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, mid-level managers numbered 10.8 million in the U.S. in 2012. In a recent Wall Street Journal special three-part series, experts say that mid-level managers are an essential layer in any company, turning top-line strategy into day-to-day action.
There is no denying the critical role that mid-level managers play in the success of fresh produce and floral companies today. PMA Foundation High Performance Management Conference is specifically designed to optimize the impact of their midlevel managers throughout the supply chain – both those who are likely to be "pros-in-place" and those who could ascend to a more responsible level in their company or in the industry in general.
This conference balances lecture-style teaching with simulation-centric learning to maximize knowledge transfer, skill building, and application of learning. The simulations, developed especially for the produce industry, will use the content, discussion, reflection, and feedback to stimulate thinking and allow participants to practice the skill or knowledge application in a risk-free environment. Content has been developed to include both industry issues and leadership training for a thorough educational experience.
Attendees will benefit from an intense two and half days of learning, networking and hands-on exercises to test their skills, expand their thinking and push them to tackle business challenges from a more strategic point of view.
If you are a mid-level manager who wants to position yourself for greater stability and proficiency in your career or a senior leader who understands the importance of developing the leadership skills of your team, don't miss this opportunity!
Who Should Attend?
Attendees for this conference represent managers, directors or any other mid-level positions that regularly requires the individual to manage, respond, and translate strategy into action. These individuals should be seeking to fast-track their career progression.
Typical job responsibilities for individuals who fit the High Performance Management Conference attendee profile include:
- Currently serve in a mid-level management role whether over people or projects
- Oversee a function/department or are an individual contributor
- Likely have more than +/-10 years industry experience
- Executes strategy on a daily basis
- Has budget responsibilities for a department, projects or a team
If you are responsible for translating your company's strategy into business results or would like to invest in your mid-level management's professional development, this conference is a must attend program.

This is one of 73 mysteries written by one of America's greatest writers (and most interesting characters). You can't call yourself a mystery fan if you haven't read Rex Stout.
Stout fellow: listen to all of our Nero Wolfe mysteries, including classic radio programs!
©1968 Rex Stout; (P)1999 Books on Tape Inc.
"It is always a treat to read a Nero Wolfe mystery. The man has entered our folklore." (The New York Times Book Review)
"What's not to like about a Nero Wolfe mystery? The mysteries are short, cleverly plotted, well paced, and, if you're an audiobook listener, wonderfully read by Michael Prichard....Prichard has read nearly 20 books in Stout's series and has mastered Wolfe's deep, meditative voice and Archie's spry, chipper voice, as well as those of a host of other characters we recognize from one recording to the next." (AudioFile)
I focus on fiction, sci-fi, fantasy, science, history, politics and read a lot. I try to review everything I read.
"Great Wolfe but not the very best story"
I have liked virtually all the Nero Wolfe books I have read or listened to, and this is no exception. This is not the best story, but the Archie and Nero characterization is really great. I particularly like the narration which does a great job making Archie come alive. I would not recommend this as a first Nero Wolfe selection (maybe Some Buried Caesar is a good place to start), but any fan will really enjoy Father Hunt. Although this is not the best Wolfe story, even a below average Wolfe is better than most mysteries. The mystery story makes sense and is interesting, intelligent, engaging, and fun, but the characterizations is what makes this particular Wolfe story special.
Rabbi Steve the Storyteller
"One of the top 10 of a great series"
A very unusual set up for the mystery. And not Wolfe's usual method of solution.
A little bit of a downer, but yet still very satisfying.
And The usual outstanding performance by Michael Prichard.
"Typical Rex Stout quality"
intriguing. entertaining. Enjoyable.
Fer-de-Lance had the same kind of intricate plotting and character development.
Archie Goodwin, as always.
Wanted to but couldn't of course. Every chance I got I went back to it.
Like all the Nero Wolfe books read by Michael Prichard, this was excellent.

The Rule of One-ThirdRick GeddesCornell University - Department of Policy Analysis & Management (PAM) Paul J. ZakClaremont Graduate University - Center for Neuroeconomics Studies Journal of Legal Studies, Vol. 31, No. 1, Part 1 Abstract: The Rule of One-Third guaranteed wives a life interest in one-third of their husband's estate upon marital dissolution. We document the ubiquity of this legal construct and demonstrate that children's outcomes are imperiled absent a wife's residual claim on her husband's estate. Using ancient Roman law as an example, we argue that the patriarch, or paterfamilias, is the primary legal entity with an interest in creating and enforcing the Rule of One-Third. In a game-theoretic model, we show that the Rule of One-Third obtains when mothers and fathers are equally important at producing children's human capital, and when it is enforced by the paterfamilias or by modern legal institutions. The Rule of One-Third places the cost of marital dissolution on the household rather than society, and solves a contracting problem between the husband and wife when each is specialized in tasks the other cannot perform well.

Al-Ghadhban, Samir (2004) "Spatial Sequence Estimator Based Decoding Algorithm for V-BLAST". VTC2004-Fall. 2004 IEEE 60th, 3. pp. 1875-1879.
Full text not available from this repository.
In this paper we introduce a novel detection algorithm for V-BLAST. The original V-BLAST detector is based on a serial interference cancellation (SIC) algorithm. Although the algorithm is relatively simple to implement, it does not achieve the performance predicted by theoretical analysis. The nulling operation reduces the receive diversity and the serial processing results in unequal diversity advantage for different layers. Also the error propagation severely degrades the performance. A detection algorithm for V-BLAST based on sequence estimation is proposed. The concept of maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE) is applied to combat spatial interference. State reduction techniques are also considered for practical implementation. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms interference cancellation based algorithms.

SEATTLE -- A West Seattle marathon mom refused to be a victim when she spotted a man stealing her husband's bicycle from her garage on June 6, 2013.
Long-distance runner Sarah Tatterson was ready to go the distance to catch the would-be burglar.
It was on instinct, a primal instinct of justice really, said Tatterson, who continued to chase the man after he ditched the bike.
I'm running and screaming, 'Call 911. This man's trying to steal my bike,' said Tatterson.
Three neighbors heard her screams and called police.
Nearly 10 blocks from her house police arrived and arrested the suspect.
During the chase, the man asked Tatterson to back off but she refused.
My response to him was, 'Look I was going to run six miles today, but I could probably do twelve,' she said.
The West Seattle Blog broke this story of the marathon mom who was not afraid to catch a thief.

Put 1200 miles on the stock one and thought id play it safe and change out the belt. Read mixed reviews bit many good ones so I gave it a try. Blew up after 200 or so miles ... had the old belt .. put it on and finished the 100 mile + ride back to camp. Stick with OEM

this belt out lasts all the after market belt. Save your money and just buy the OE it will last longer. Just make sure to break the belt in.

Not impressed. I have smoked 3 of these in the dunes. Amazingly, the OEM that came with my RZR that I carry as a backup has saved my hide each time. It has almost 2K on it. Back to OEM for me. No savings if you have to keep replacing them.

I had 2 of these; the first grenaded and the 2nd glazed after ~200 miles following a "better" break-in process. Sand is hard on belts. Here's what I have learned: Wash your belt with hot, soapy water, rinse, and let dry thoroughly. Blow out the clutch area with air. Clean both clutch sheaves with brake cleaner but keep it off the rollers. Break it in easy for the first tank of fuel. 1 hr at 1/2 throttle or less, then ease up to no more than a few seconds at full throttle if necessary. I have grenaded 3 belts. My dealer told me why: all 3 times were after I had been playing on hillclimbs where it backshifted and slipped a lot. Then I went for top speed runs. Lots of belt heat followed by high RPM = big bang & lots of belt chunks and cords wrapped around everything. I have had better luck with the Gates Carbon-series though.

EXCLUSIVE: Battleworld Gets Dangerous in Marvel's July 2015 Solicitations
Comic Books
When I attend comic book conventions these days, I tend to avoid the Marvel and DC panels, in favor of creator-focused and/or independent comics panels. And it's not just because it's always easier to find a decent seat. But attending the Family Friendly Comics panel at HeroesCon this past summer was mostly a chance to catch up with the work of Chris Schweizer, Andy Runton and Chris Giarrusso. I was not looking to be introduced to new work, but the panel made me aware of Jamie Cosley, the creator of the webcomic, Cody The Cavalier. And once I became aware of Cosley, I decided to interview him.
Tim O'Shea: You just celebrated your one-year anniversary on Cody the Cavalier. How satisfying was it to reach that milestone?
Jamie Cosley: It's very encouraging to find a character that you truly love. I believe I'm just beginning to scratch the surface with this little guy and hope to produce many more strips for many years to come!
O'Shea: What lead you to develop Cody in the first place?
Cosley: A little over a year ago I was contacted by an editor named Jason Long to try out for the Word Girl comic series published by Boom studios. I was stoked beyond belief and put together tons of sample sketches and a one page sample (pencils and inks) working from the script he provided. I worked really hard to capture the look of the show and to stay as close to that model as possible. I was told I made it all the way to the top of Boom and Scholastic but they wound up choosing a much more stylized version of Word Girl. So close. I was really bummed for about 5 days – "really bummed" but then I received some an encouraging word from a friend of mine and sat down to create Cody! I doodled this little kitty with a sword and all was right with the world once again Cody is a tribute to my favorite comic strips and creators of all time! Ziggy, Hagar the Horrible, Groo, King Aroo etc. – the tagline from the very beginning was "Ziggy meets Zorro"…..although now I'm more likely to tell people it's "Ziggy" meets Puss in Boots especially with the new movie coming out even though the two characters are very different.
O'Shea: It's hard to start building an audience in the comics market, was this strip a commentary on your struggles?
Cosley: Perhaps
It's really about working at a pace that you're comfortable with and developing the characters and their audience slowly. During the day I develop comic strips for businesses. I have clients that are security companies and some that manufacturer office furniture and they love to share their news/ideas/grievances through comics. It's awesome – I've included a couple of samples.
So one newsletter/magazine may have an audience of 4,000 but it's just for that particular industry. So when you try and create your own webcomic for a much larger audience and realize that maybe 30 people are visiting each day it's easy to get discouraged. But I read somewhere that it takes like 3 years to really get an audience so I'm not throwing in the towel because according to that statistic I haven't even really started yet.
O'Shea: During the recent hurricane Irene, you had no power, but you had time to concoct some new creative ideas. Any plans to work some of the ideas into Cody?
Cosley: Absolutely! My son Tyler is 10 and my daughter Ava is 3 and we were without power for 6 days, so during the light of the day she would put together puzzles with mommy and he and I would create comics. We would feverishly fill our notebooks with story ideas and characters and some of those ideas have already started to show up in the strip.
O'Shea: Were you pleased with how your name the frog character turned out?
Cosley: Yes, that was actually a lot of fun and I'm very pleased with "Muddy Spoons" (shout out to Little John and OC!!) – you will definitely see more of him in the future.
O'Shea: Of all the Cody cast, have there been any characters that have grown on you (more than the others) over time?
Cosley: For some reasons I cannot explain, this guy haunts me. He first appeared as a painting and has only been in 2 strips so far but I really like him so we'll see what happens…..
O'Shea: While Cody started as one-panel gag comics, you've expanded into longer multi-panel strips. What prompted this shift?
Cosley: I am working on a longer story because I wanted to see how difficult it would be for me to switch gears It's actually tougher than I thought because my brain is still always trying to turn everything into a one panel joke. I'm learning how to take my time and pace the story.
O'Shea: How much of a boost was it to your creative drive to have taken part in a HeroesCon panel this year with Andy Runton and Chris Giarrusso?
Cosley: I walked away from that entire weekend with a renewed sense of purpose and passion. HeroesCon in Charlotte is the BEST show and I can't wait until next year. I was honored to be on a panel with them and it was very encouraging to see how supportive they both were. I'm not an equal but they treated me as such and that was inspiring. Andy and Chris are both Superstars and everyone should buy Owly and G-Man!
O'Shea: Creatively what's on the horizon for you?
Cosley: More Cody for sure! I am pitching a longer story to an editor so my fingers are crossed! I will keep you posted. I'm also the regular artist of an ongoing series called Priscilla for Salinas Slugger Studios and Crown of Life Jr. comics. You can read the first issue here. We are working on a fifth issue as I write this. I also write/illustrate a Lil' Priscilla strip that appears in a magazine in Houston, Texas.
Cosley is one of the most creative all-ages webstrip guys out there, with a flair that falls in the same company as Owly, Tiny Titans and Bone. It always makes me happy when pure, simple talent like this gets the notice he deserves.
Good interview with one of the nicest people in the business. I hope this brings more attention to Jaime's excellent work.
Congrats, Jamie! This guy needs more attention.

It has been a long road back for Oklahoma's Dan Cody, and his journey is being rewarded.
Cody, a junior defensive end, is the Big 12 Conference Defensive Player of the Week only two seasons removed from leaving the Sooners during a bout with clinical depression.
After playing in nine games as a freshman in 2000, Cody missed most of the 2001 season. He started the season opener before leaving the team after clinical depression was diagnosed.
"I had contact from time to time, week to week," Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said. "It was nothing to do with football, just checking on him to see how he was progressing and make sure he was getting the help and assistance he needed."
Stoops said he didn't know whether Cody would be able to return to the Sooners, but that wasn't his concern.
"He needed time to get it balanced out," Stoops said. "When he did, he came back in here asking if he could play again, and I said, "Absolutely.'"
The reunion has been beneficial for both parties. After serving as a solid backup last season, Cody has been outstanding this season. He has 25 tackles, two forced fumbles and leads the team with eight sacks.
In the Sooners' 52-9 win against Oklahoma State on Saturday, Cody had four tackles, all for losses, three sacks and forced a fumble.
"We felt that provided he was back healthy and doing what he was capable of, he could be a great player for us," Stoops said.
AT THE HELM: While Oklahoma continued to roll through the Big 12 Conference, separating itself from the pack in the South Division, things tightened in the North Division.
Nebraska lost 31-7 at Texas, dropping the Cornhuskers to 3-2 in the conference and leaving them tied with Kansas State, with Missouri one-half game back at 2-2 and Kansas a game back.
"It's a great race right now," Iowa State coach Dan McCarney said. "You look at it and see teams that are tied with the lead that have two losses. I think it's going to be a great finish."
McCarney's Cyclones have an opportunity to affect the outcome of the race for the North Division title. Iowa State plays Missouri and Kansas State in two of its last four games. McCarney said the Cyclones are trying to avoid the "spoiler" mentality, though.
"We wouldn't use that terminology," McCarney said. "We're trying to give our fans something to be proud of here in the last four weeks of the season."
In the South Division, the Sooners lead Texas by a game and hold the tiebreaker against the Longhorns, having beaten them 65-13 on Oct. 11. This week, Oklahoma hosts Texas A&M; the Aggies upset then-No. 1 Oklahoma last season.
"Texas A&M we realize is a team that beat us last season when we were No. 1 in the country," Stoops said. "We know we've got a big challenge this week to maintain the position of pursuing a Big 12 championship, and possibly a national championship."
OTHER AWARDS: Texas running back Cedric Benson and Texas Tech's Wes Welker are the other Big 12 Players of the Week along with Cody.
Benson, the Offensive Player of the Week, rushed for 174 yards and three touchdowns in the Longhorns' 31-7 win against Nebraska.
Welker, the Special Teams Player of the Week, returned a punt 58 yards for a touchdown, the eighth of his career, setting an NCAA record. Welker also set a Big 12 career mark with 1,678 punt return yards.
"I think it's really impressive," Texas Tech coach Mike Leach said. "He had over 200 of all-purpose yards. He's always been a guy who has a lot of skills but does a lot of what he does on grit and determination."

Your radiator keeps your engine cool and is as significant to your whip as the auto part that keeps it up: the radiator support. A tough Chrysler radiator support is just what your remarkably heavy internal combustion engine radiator system needs to keep it secure. You are recommended to substitute your current support using a radiator support manufactured by Chrysler when years of wear and tear weaken it.
Made to keep your radiator standing tough in the wake of severe engine vibration and engine heat the radiator support fastens the radiator to the upper and lower rails as well as left and right side aprons of your engine assembly frame. Often constructed from plastic, steel, or aluminum, a radiator support done by Chrysler is equipped to bear extreme temperatures, road salts, and the roughness of continuous driving. A durable Chrysler radiator support is important in keeping the hood and fender in line and not simply in supporting the radiator. You ensure reliable engine cooling and a smooth operation for your whip when you get a new Chrysler radiator support.
Parts Train is the most reliable shop in the business when you're looking for grade-A auto components. We have been providing customer-friendly service for longer than ten years and possess more than 1 million parts in in our catalog. We're sure to provide you a Transdapt or any other brand of radiator support fast and easily. Get a brand new Chrysler radiator support from Parts Train today and you won't be sorry for it!

BEST SAUCE WITH SAN MARZANO TOMATOS? Wanted to let you know that I tried the recipe and we really enjoyed it, it really yummy and I'll be happily making it in the future. Thanks again! |
BEST SAUCE WITH SAN MARZANO TOMATOS? Oh wow, this is wonderful, thank you so much! I'm really looking forward to trying it. I have a standard sauce in which I use basil and oregano, the usual, and have been wanting to find some alternatives. Rosemary and bay leaves sound great. And, ha, I love that the restaurant's signature dish is the same as yours, too good. I really appreciate the recipe, thank you. |
BEST SAUCE WITH SAN MARZANO TOMATOS? Hi, CherylS-- I'm very interested in the sauce you describe here (http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/4495...) and would love to try it. Would you be willing to share the recipe? Hope to hear from you, thanks so much... Kelley |

cobalt ammonium phosphate
Cobalt Violet PV49 is a lightfast, semitransparent, nonstaining, light violet pigment with low tinting strength. Because of its high cost and low tinting strength, it is generally used only in pure applications.
Cobalt ammonium phosphate is completely lightfast. Because of its low tinting strength, tints are susceptible to color shifts, as other materials undergo changes.
Cobalt ammonium phosphate is toxic.
Cobalt comes from the Middle High German word kobolt, an underground goblin, because miners thought cobalt harmed silver ores. Cobalt Violet was the first real violet pigment and was described by Salvetat in 1859. The light variety of this pigment, developed in Germany earlier in the 19th century, was particularly poisonous due to its arsenic content. Cobalt Violet hues were the only permanent bright violets available to artists until the 1950s. Cobalt ammonium phosphate has been manufactured since 1859, but its use in artist paints is less common than other forms of Cobalt Violet.

The 42-year-old, who represents Hauraki-Waikato, has given birth to Niua-Cybele Mahuta by Caesarean section.
Ms Mahuta, who is married to William Ormsby, said she has been able to juggle motherhood with her demanding career as an MP and aimed to return to Parliament early next year.
The MP, who was education spokeswoman this year, took her newborn son Waiwaia Nukutawhiti Mahuta to Parliament in 2009.
In 2008 her first son Ormsby was born prematurely, and lived for just an hour.
She said it was very traumatic and a tragedy for her family and had thrown herself into the election campaign to cope.

Building for the future, today – combining the best of historical wisdom and modern technology.
By Anna Flin
Tags: Solar Decathlon, renewable energy, solar-powered homes
In the process of making connections with students and faculty involved in this year's Solar Decathlon, I've become acquainted with several notably intelligent people, many of whom are younger than I. They answer my questions with enthusiastic forecasts, not just for their own success in the upcoming competition, but for a future that will benefit from what they have learned, whether or not they win a trophy.
But that enthusiasm has a slight blur around the edges. Sleep deprivation. Assembly starts at midnight, tonight. And it's probably safe to assume that shops in D.C. providing caffeine in any form will be doing well for the next three weeks. While students, advisors and volunteers are gearing up for the clock to strike 12, we'll take a look at what they've gone through the past few days, just to make it all possible.
For many of the solar-powered houses entered in this year's competition, the journey from home to the National Mall is not a short one. It's a complex process requiring students and advisors to disassemble the fruit of two years' labor, load it onto trucks, and send it down the road, just hoping it will arrive in D.C. in one piece.
Chris Werner, team leader for Cornell University's Solar Decathlon team describes the process of preparing the Silo House for departure on Sept. 28.
"Every door must be secured," Werner says. "Every tank must be drained. Ducts are demounted for travel. PV's, evacuated tubes, and structural steel are demounted and packaged. All windows and openings will be covered with travel-grade shrink wrap. Most appliances will be removed. Every item that could potentially shift, fall, or break will be wrapped and secured in place."
Not only can the houses be damaged in transit, the trucks tend to experience problems on the highway.
Associate Professor at Santa Clara University, Timothy Hight recalls the misfortune of 2007.
"… we were delayed twice by broken axles on our trailer, and arrived on the mall about 2 and ½ days late."
This year, Team California's Refract House made it successfully to D.C. on time, despite minor complications on the journey.
"We had to wait a few extra days for our most fragile module as it was stuck in the Atlanta rains," Project Manager Allison Kopf says.
And things don't get any easier once the trucks successfully reach D.C. Dean of Boston Architectural College, Jeff Stein, discusses the potentially overwhelming experience of figuring out what to do with Team Boston's Curio House until it's time to unload it at midnight on Oct. 1.
"…this is the first time we have done something like this, and through our truckers, we have only just learned that the city of Washington, D.C. will only allow wide-load trucks into the city limits between the hours of 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.," Stein says. "So now we are making calls to see where we can put these trucks inside the city for nine hours or so."
Having survived the heart-stopping experience of riding through D.C. traffic, I can only imagine being surrounded by wide-load trucks carrying house components, but University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Construction Manager, Joseph Rice, casually sums it up by saying of the Meltwater House that it's "…slightly nerve racking to see a 7,200-pound roof section swaying in the breeze."

Game Review (by Spinner 8):
Come on, who hasn't played Chrono Trigger? All of Square's biggest talents teamed with Dragon Quest producer Yuji Horii and character designer Akira Toriyama to make a truly classic RPG. It's amazing to think that from a company that puts all of its resources into the Final Fantasy franchise, most people instead consider Chrono Trigger to be the best RPG ever made. Yep, it's that good. All the loser Squaresoft fanboys you keep seeing and managing to talk to? Play Chrono Trigger and you'll understand.
You play as Crono, a mute (yet beloved.. why?) character whose friend Lucca accidentally creates a rift in the space-time continuum and sucks a girl back four hundred years in time. You go in to rescue her and set in motion a chain of events that will save the world from total destruction a thousand years from now by an evil otherworldly entity. It's a good game, seriously.
This patch pretty much alters the 8×8 font to that of the one in Sky Render's FF6 retranslation, with some other minor work done. I guess the object of this project is to fix the "miserable" job that Square did in the official translation. This is just my opinion, but I feel that this and Final Fantasy VI had perfectly good translations, and most of the discrepancies are very cosmetic, at best.
Anyway. make sure the patch is applied to a header-less ROM.

Mon Feb 17 2003 18:46:
On our way back from Bakersfield (speaking of which: we went to Bakersfield), Sumana and I ate at Colonel Lee's Mongolian BBQ in Mountain View. It wasn't as good as Mongol's BBQ in LA (there weren't sesame rolls, the noodles weren't as good, and there were fewer available types of vegetable), but on the plus side it's only 50 miles away instead of 400. Also, there's a soft serve machine, you get to choose your own sauces rather than being subject to the arbitrary whim of an employee, and it's generally cleaner.
For some reason, the closest Mongolian BBQ I could find to San Francisco is Colonel Lee's. Without knowing anything at all about why this is actually the case, I blame archaic health regulations against communal ingredient choosing and leaving frozen meat out in the open.
There's also a nice used-bookstore-that-tries-to-look-like-a-new-bookstore right across the street from Colonel Lee's.

Semantics and Architecture of Global Transaction Support in Workflow Environments
Grefen, Paul and Vonk, Jochem and Boertjes, Erik and Apers, Peter M.G. (1999) Semantics and Architecture of Global Transaction Support in Workflow Environments. In: IFCIS International Conference on Cooperative Information Systems. CoopIS, 1999, Edinburgh, Scotland (pp. pp. 348-359).
129kB |
Abstract: | We present an approach to global transaction management in workflow environments. The transaction mechanism is based on the well-known notion of sagas, but extended to deal with arbitrary process structures including cycles and savepoints that allow partial compensation. We present a formal specification of the transaction model and transaction management mechanisms in set and graph theory, providing clear, unambiguous transaction semantics. The specification is straightforwardly mapped to a modular architecture, the implementation of which is applied in the prototype of a commercial workflow management system. The loosely-coupled nature of the resulting system allows easy distribution using middleware technology |

My home - CS Interiors
I was very excited when CS Interiors ask to feature my home and the designers that made my living and dining room my favorite space. The photo shoot was taken in month of two of baby taking over our lives, so although it looks perfect in the shots, our daily lives are now trying to cover our furniture and full of baby stuff everywhere.
The photographer took beautiful shots of our home. I love my designers and if you live in Chicago and looking for help in your home, you should definitely talk to Summer & Whitney. Check out her website here.

Naval traditions and culture encompass a wide range of activities, events, and objects, often unique to naval service. Some, like the ?crossing the line? (meaning, the equator) ceremony, are old and well-established, while others, such as gun shield art, related directly to Second World War experiences. Many reflect companionship, commemoration, recreation, or esprit de corps.
British Admiral Sir John Jellicoe, a prominent pre-war and wartime naval commander, is the subject of this First World War Toby jug.
The figure of Jellicoe, in full dress naval uniform and cocked hat, sits on a base marked with the Royal Navy's White Ensign. He holds a jug marked "Hell Fire Jack", a nickname arising from the improvements he made to gunnery during his time as director of naval ordnance. This jug is one of a series created by British political cartoonist Francis Carruthers Gould that caricatures Allied military leaders and politicians.

dc.description.abstract | This research project aims to explore the implementation process of the low cost housing policy, over the period from 1994 to 2001 in the, Msunduzi Municipality area. There are problems with the implementation of the housing policy by local government and this is causing delays in the delivery of the low cost housing for the poor. The findings of this research project will show that these problems have many sources. These include: firstly, the funding and the budget allocated for the housing projects. Secondly, the interference of the provincial government and the power play to control the housing policy. Thirdly, the uniformity of the houses in the projects; these houses can be related to the social and township houses of the late apartheid era. The housing policy in Msunduzi is facing many problems in the implementation stages. In order to identify the problems one must first find out what makes a problem free and an efficient policy. The information provided in the background study was gathered from a collection of sources, namely, journal articles, newspaper articles and government papers including the housing White Paper. A major part of the information gathered was through interviews conducted with a handful of members of the housing sector in the Msunduzi area. My interviews were conducted with a member of the Msunduzi Housing Association, a member of the National Home Builders Registration Council, and three members of the local Department of Housing. These interviews have allowed me to analysis the situation in Msunduzi area and come up with certain conclusions, as seen in the final report. | en_US |
